Movie March Madness: Heroes vs. Villains Returns.

I have been doing a March Madness style bracket since I started writing on this blog, and this is the third year of Heroes vs Villains. A bracket where my readers are given the opportunity to vote for their favorite heroes and villains from movies and TV to see who would come out on top. Its been fun, and it seems like you all have fun with it, so I have decided to bring back this March. Buckle up, it will be returning this Thursday.

Last year our final four comprised of Batman for the movie heroes, Spock for TV heroes, Darth Vader for movie villains and Don Draper for TV villains. These guys are back to defend their titles. And a new host of challengers await to do battle with them in the voting booths. Batman has won our first two March Madness tournaments. Darth Vader has made it to the final four both years as well, but has not won yet. Could this be Darth Vader's year? Will Spock or Draper get their revenge? Will Batman be a three-time Heroes vs Villains champion? Or will a new challenger come from the fray and win the tournament? Its really up to you guys. It depends on your votes. So spread the word, get your families and friends involved, you can vote every day in the designated voting blocks. So get hype and get ready. Today, I will be listing the characters in each category. They will be listed in order of their seed. Whoever is number one will be the number one seed, whoever is number sixteen will be the number sixteen seed.

Voting will begin on March 16th for First Round. Second Round voting will begin on March 21st. Third Round voting will begin March 24th. Fourth Round voting will begin March 29th. The Final Four vote will begin April 1st. The Final battle between the biggest hero and the biggest villain will commence on April 5th. You can vote by emailing me at bloggershawn@gmail.com. You can also vote in the comment section below. If you'd like to vote via Facebook message, that's fine too, please just let me know in advance.
